About Coeur de Chevre Cheese

Coeur de Chevre is a soft, soft-ripened cheese made from unpasteurized goat's milk in the Gâtinais region of France. This cheese is distinguished by its pale yellow color and is traditionally wrapped in leaves. Its flavor profile is both salty and spicy, offering a fresh and milky aroma that complements its taste. With a delicate texture, Coeur de Chevre has a creamy consistency that melts easily on the palate. The leaf wrapping not only helps maintain the cheese's shape but also adds an earthy element to its overall taste. Perfect for enjoying on its own or as part of a cheese platter, Coeur de Chevre pairs well with a variety of accompaniments.
